Template:Empty-warn-NPF
Similarly to Empty-warn (see RfD) the name is confusing. "Empty" is understood to mean either A3 or C1 but not A1 which does not apply to empty pages. This template was kept at a previous TfD because it was used by PageCuration but this no longer applies as it has been removed from Page Curation/Templates. Nickps (talk) 23:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Empty-warn-NPF


 * Deletion is my preferred outcome since the template is unused but I wouldn't oppose moving it to Template:Nocontext-warn-NPF which would be a reasonable title and would match the pattern in Page Curation/Templates. Nickps (talk) 23:46, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Still used by PageTriage. See deletionTags.json line 22. There are plans to convert PageTriage to use standard rather than custom (-NPF) templates in T362477, but we're not there yet. These -NPF templates should stay in the meantime. – Novem Linguae (talk) 00:23, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Not ideal. Cam we at least move the page to Template:Nocontext-warn-NPF? The redirect left behind will make it so nothing gets broken and we can delete it as soon as deletionTags.json gets updated. Nickps (talk) 00:34, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Neutral. If you feel strongly about it, go ahead. – Novem Linguae (talk) 01:08, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I feel strongly enough about to bring it here. Let's make it happen. Nickps (talk) 08:32, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * @Nickps Can you file a task to update deletionTags.json Sohom ( talk ) 10:07, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * We should probably wait for the TfD to close. For all I know someone may object. I'll do it right after that. Nickps (talk) 10:59, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Here's how I picture it going. First the TfD closes as move so the template is moved to the new title and the redirect at the old title makes it so PageTriage won't get broken. Then I open the task to update deletionTags.json and finally when the update is made, I tag the redirect for WP:G6. Is that fine? Nickps (talk) 11:01, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't G6 the redirect. Redirects from page moves are supposed to exist forever, to help people track down pages that have moved. They cost nothing for us to keep :) – Novem Linguae (talk) 21:42, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Well in this case the redirect falls under WP:R since, as I've said above "empty" is not really associated with A1 but since the deletion isn't uncontroversial anymore, I'll take it to RfD when the time comes. Nickps (talk) 22:01, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

2014 Football League play-offs templates
Templates are redundant, being used only by 1 or 2 articles and can easily be replaced by substituting content. Also inconsistent with other seasons where these templates are not used and with previous TfD consensus that similar templates were not necessary. Microwave Anarchist (talk) 20:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Template:Box-r
Template little-used since its creation 16 years ago (~30 transclusions). We don't need anything this remotely flexible either, and there are plenty of other templates that could be used for a box floating right. Izno (talk) 16:32, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Should be replaced with. Thanks to for pointing out the duplication. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 09:12, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Template:Senegalese Tirailleurs
Contains only one link outside of the title navbox. All are red links to this Wikipedia. With the rest being external links to the French Wikipedia. No navigation. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:18, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Senegalese Tirailleurs

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Izno (talk) 02:44, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Oppose deletion I will be using the template to create new articles about these neglected colonial units. &#43;JMJ+ (talk) 17:21, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You should create articles before the navbox. Navboxes are meant to link articles that exist not to be created down the line. If you want to work on this, then this should be userfyed. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 17:23, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
 * How would I "userfy" it? &#43;JMJ+ (talk) 21:10, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You could copy it to your WP:SANDBOX -- wooden superman  15:23, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. At the very least it needs trimming so that the WP:EXISTING articles aren't lost amongst a sea of redlinks and external links to the French Wikipedia (P.S. No external links in navboxes). -- wooden  superman  15:21, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
